The Wedding Mehendi is very special ceremony for every bride. During this ceremony, the bridal mehendi is applied on the hands and feet of the bride. This usually happens a day or two before the wedding. The Mehendi ceremony has a very special significance. All married women and young girls apply henna on their palms for this occasion.
But the bridal mehendi is different from all others. The name of the groom is written on the bride's palms during the Mehendi. The patterns of henna stretch across till the upper arms of the bride. Henna is also applied on the bride's feet. That is why the Indian bride needs to wear something that keeps her arms free.
Green, red and blue are the colours that are most widely worn at the Mehendi ceremony of the wedding. But lately, off-white and pink are really 'in'. So you can try them this winter. The bridal lehenga is usually red and that is why, the bride-to-be trys to avoid red for the wedding Mehendi. But the only colour forbidden for the Indian bride is black and white in few cases. You are free to experiment with any of the other colours.
